The Associated Press’ Tim Reynolds reported Sunday afternoon that impending free agent will tell Miami Heat officials that he “wishes to play” for the team.
Not that this is a surprise - or means anything - but Jimmy Butler is expected to tell Miami officials tonight that he wishes to play for the Heat, per source.

Free agency is set to begin at 6 p.m. ET. Butler will meet with Heat officials this evening, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Will Riley find a way to facilitate a sign-and-trade to get Butler in a Miami uniform, something that didn’t happen in October 2018?
